Students Frolic, Co-Eds Discover Engineering Students Brew Coffee And Shoot Craps During Lab Period "What do electrical engineering students do during their long hours of lab?" In seeking the answer to this question two curious co-eds made the first feminine entrance into this masculine domain at least, one engineer saying that they were the first girls to enter there. Behind lab books and thesis papery a coffee pot was found hidden. Sugar in tins, and milk in the original cans were similarly discovered and dragged to light. "Coffee is served here every night," one of the engineering students explained. Pointing to a Bible, this same student declared that "at 12 o'clock every day, we hold Devotionals." In response to the surprised laughter he answered, "The Civil Engineering students upstairs are so profane, we have to do something. After this, we start a crap game." Among other entertainments is listening to the phonograph?beg your pardon?electrical recordings of W I S over the rigged up radio. Over this same radio the E. E. students communicate with other states and "even with Australia." One student insisted he had a card from this station, but in spite of dogged searching he was unable to produce evidence. One joyous entertainment forbidden forever to them now is the spark coil shocking apparatus. Some say that this instrument was dispensed with by orders of a member of the faculty.
